Christmas is coming, so it's time for presents... 🎄 🎁 Today, at the Institute of Public Affairs (https://lnkd.in/dkXmiay9) we have officially published the report from the quantitative survey "Public mood, public activity and attitudes towards democracy according to Polish women and men"!!! 💥 💪 It can be found up here👉 https://lnkd.in/dGJeYdE8. 💥💪 The survey was conducted in the summer of 2023 and its results show, among other things: 👉 who was most dissatisfied with the situation in the country at the time? 👉 how do Poles from different social groups view democracy? 👉 how do Polish women and men publicly engage? 👉 at what price are they willing to give up democratic values? 👉 what do young people think about democracy? Fot this time being it's in Polish only (sorry! 🤷♂️), but English version is comming and there will also be a 2nd part explaining what acivities Poles expect from the new government... 💪 The research was carried out as part of the Central Europe Civic Engagement Program (CECEP), a 5-year initiative to strengthen civic engagement in Central Europe. Our Institute cooperates with the National Democratic Institute Central Europe (https://lnkd.in/dB_UeZXH) as part of the programme and supports selected coalitions of civic organisations in Poland. Data from our survey was primarily used in this respect... 🎉 🎊 🎆
